The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 368 Sympathy

Luna was lost in her thoughts while Leo and Emily kept talking.

To calm Leo down, Emily took the two necklaces and examined them herself.

Luna had been ruthless. Since Leo had found she stole the necklaces, she decided not to bother selling them and just destroyed them all.

The necklaces had been yanked apart, with identical breaks. Fixing them wouldn't be easy, but Emily thought she might give it a shot.

"Mr. Ward, let me handle these two necklaces. I'll see what I can do to fix them. But the store's prized possession..."

JM Jewelry's prized possession wasn't entirely Emily's work. She had only been part of the design team, and her name was attached to it. So fixing this necklace required Penelope.

But Penelope was currently abroad on business.

With no other option, Emily had to explain the situation to Leo as gently as possible.

Leo understood Emily's implication and felt a deep sense of regret. He could have protected the necklace, which he had planned to give to Vanessa when he saw her.

But now?

Luna had ruined everything.

Thinking about this, Leo shot a fierce glare at Luna, scaring her into silence, not even daring to sob.

"Alright, I'll wait for Penelope to return."

"Thank you, Emily. Please do your best to restore these necklaces."

With that, Leo stood up, ready to see Emily out and then deal with Luna.

But unexpectedly, a dark figure stormed in from outside.

It was Roger.
